DESCRIPTION:Deep Learning and Metabolomics for Animal Disease Research and 
 Beyond\n\nJoin us for this 4 o'Clock Forum featuring Department of Animal 
 Science Professor Dr. Matthias Klein.\n\nAbout the Speaker\n\nDr. Klein ea
 rned his degrees in physics and biology at the Universität Regensburg\, Ge
 rmany. During his studies\, he discovered small molecule biomarkers indica
 ting the risk of ketosis in dairy cows as well as human liver and kidney d
 iseases.\n\nDr. Klein held postdoctoral positions at the Ludwig-Maximilian
 s-Universität Munich and the University of Calgary and a faculty position 
 at Ohio State University before joining 9I���������’s Department of Animal Scie
 nce in 2024.\n\nDr. Klein is employing machine learning and artificial int
 elligence approaches for the analysis of various big data sources\, includ
 ing “omics” data. The goal of these analyses is to predict disease develop
 ment and other parameters in (production) animals\, especially dairy cows 
 and humans.\n\nA further research interest is the application of Nuclear M
 agnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy of biofluids for identifying disease 
 biomarkers.\n\nAbout the 4 o'Clock Forum Seminar Series\n\n9I���������'s Facult
 y of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences has tremendous expertise and 
 opportunities for innovations in research on agriculture\, the environment
 \, health\, food\, nutrition\, pests and parasites\, including from a biot
 echnology perspective. However\, there are limited opportunities for facul
 ty\, postdoctoral fellows and graduate students to share their common inte
 rests in these areas.\n\nIn order to bring together the Macdonald Science 
 Community\, we have initiated a monthly seminar series—'4 O'clock Forum'—w
 here faculty members and postdoctoral fellows are invited to present their
  work. Through these seminars on the Macdonald campus\, researchers and gr
 aduate students will have regular opportunities to be exposed to scientifi
 c advancements related to their own fields of research as well as other sc
 ientific areas. Graduate and undergraduate students can benefit from these
  academic opportunities\, all of which are aimed at stimulating critical d
 iscussions about contemporary research and issues in the agriculture and e
 nvironment\, to foster increased interactions among the Macdonald faculty\
 , and to highlight our ability to deliver outstanding scientific contribut
 ions.\n\nPlease contact jaswinder.singh [at] mcgill.ca with any questions.
